Abstract: A partially collimated light beam (2) is sent through a substrate matrix of a plurality of nested individual joined geometrically shaped cells (301) wherein each of the cells is further comprised of subcells (502) contains containing a patterned volume holographic diffuser (302) which produces a transmitted diffused light beam (305) from each of the cells and then superimposes each transmitted diffused light beam from each of the cells to produce a combined resultant diffused light beam. The combined resultant diffused light beam has an angular luminance distribution profile curve (83) with sharply vertical profile slopes (81) at halfpeak points (20) and a substantially flat and wide peak (84), this resultant diffused light beam advantageously produces a uniform resultant luminance over a wide range of view angles with a predetermined beam spread and beam deflection angle at said predetermined viewer head box location (100).
